Shirley,
We are deeply saddened to hear of Fred's passing. We will miss him very much at camp. It was always great to talk with him...he had so much knowledge of the outdoors that with every conversation you could learn something new. We are keeping you & your family in our prayers.

Pat,
I am so sorry to hear about your brother's passing. I am not sure if you will remember me. I was a Jones before my marriage in 1972. A little over 2 years ago I lost my husband and then last year lost my Mom.
Keep the memory of your brother in your heart and trust in God who will see you through.
You can contact me at the e-mail address I am posting with this entry.
